CHAPTER 119

“My real name is…” “Madame,” the waiter intruded into their space, “any more orders?”

Rebecca and Jane glared at him. “O-Okay. I’ll come back later,” he walked away without making any sound.

Jane turned her head fast and looked at Benjamin. “So, you were saying…” He looked into Rebecca’s eyes. “It’s Benjamin Wolfe.

And I booked this table for the whole day, from 9 to 8, so it’ll be 11,000 dollars just for sitting at the table.” “It’s okay,” Benjamin just replied with

It wasn’t an amount Benjamin couldn’t pay, but it was still equal to two to three months of his salary, so she felt bad for making him spend now. To add to that, Benjamin paid 400 dollars in tips. The waiter thanked them both as he only received at an average of 10 dollars per table. As they were leaving, she asked, “You bought the bike, didn’t you? Did you take out a loan
